Official SFAI transcripts list your coursework completed as an SFAI student; your full legal name; your degree/certificate program, and if applicable, your date of birth; an you SFAI ID number. Official transcripts also include a brief explanation of grades and are signed, dated, and sealed by the Registrar.

SFAI transcripts list only courses that have been graded, not courses that are still in progress. To obtain a listing of your current coursework, please print out a copy of your current Class Schedule from WebAdvisor. To obtain documentation that you are registered at SFAI (does not list your courses), request a Proof of Enrollment verification instead.

Transfer Course Notation on Transcripts
Though official transcripts note how many transfer credits from another institution were accepted toward your degree/certificate, it does not list the actual courses and grades from the other institutions that were transferred. Your grade point average (GPA) from transferred courses is not counted in your SFAI GPA. SFAI does not assume authority to issue official transcripts from other institutions, even those from which transferred credits were accepted. To obtain official transcripts of coursework done at other institutions, please contact the registrar’s office at those institutions. To view how your transferred courses satisfy required areas of your SFAI degree program, run your "Program Evaluation" (not a transcript) in WebAdvisor.
